He Jin was uncharacteristically uncharacteristic today, and very calmly rejected Liu Hong's proposal, which greatly exceeded everyone's expectations.

Because He Jin was born as a butcher, and over the years relied on the favor of his younger sister, Empress He, to rise to power. The upper-class family respected him on the surface, but in fact, no one thought highly of him secretly.

He Jin himself knows this very well, so he hates others' sarcasm the most, and he can't stand outsiders pointing at him the most.

It can be said that Liu Zhang has studied He Jin thoroughly. Three years ago, even He Jin farted and shit. Liu Zhang could guess that He Jin can be so rational today. Liu Zhang guesses that there must be some huge temptation for He Jin. in front of it.

Naturally, Liu Zhang couldn't let He Jin get what he wanted, so he twitched the corner of his mouth and began to push the He brothers into the fire pit even more.

"General, if you feel that 3,000 people are not sure about 3,000 people, you might as well do this! I only send 500 people, how about it?"

Looking at Liu Zhang's slightly raging eyes, the anger in He Jin's heart is burning!

Too much deception, this Liu Zhang is really deceiving too much! This is too disrespectful to He Jin.

Just as He Jin was about to get angry, He Miao who was beside him broke out first.

"Liu Zhang! How dare you despise our brothers! I can't stop talking to you!"

Liu Zhang's words did not take He Jin seriously, and he couldn't help but angered the He brothers, and even surprised Liu Hong.

"He Miao, do you think this is your chariot general's mansion? Shout out here!"

Liu Hong's reprimand also awakened the furious He Miao, who quickly pleaded guilty to Liu Hong.

"Your Majesty calm down, minister, minister is so angry! This Liu Zhang really underestimated us!"

Don't you dare to agree even if you look down on you so much? waste!

Liu Hong really wanted to say this to the He brothers, but he was worried that Liu Zhang would be too arrogant.

"Rear General, you are indeed too reckless. Five hundred people against three thousand? This is too much. If the general is really unwilling, forget it!"

Liu Hong's idea is very simple, he would rather not compete than let Liu Zhang lose! Because the stakes are too high this time! Once lost, Liu Hong may not be able to turn over!

Liu Zhang didn't care at all, he smiled and looked at Liu Hong.

"Your Majesty, the minister is not arrogant, but the general is timid. Three thousand is against three thousand. He certainly dare not accept it."

He Jin's nose was about to turn crooked, Liu Zhang really didn't treat him as a human being!

In such a palace hall, facing important officials of the court, Liu Zhang belittled himself like this!

But three thousand against three thousand, He Jin really didn't dare to take it, and he would definitely not win if he did, and it was even more embarrassing for himself!

"General, five hundred versus three thousand, do you accept it or not!"

Liu Hong also went all out, and now he can only trust Liu Zhang. He Jin is as timid as a mouse, and he would definitely not fight under the same circumstances as soldiers.

He Jin really wanted to yell, pick it up! But the last sliver of reason in my heart is still persuading me to be cautious. The more arrogant Liu Zhang became, the more arrogant he became, which made He Jin feel more guilty, because he didn't believe that Liu Zhang said these words impulsively.

At this time, He Miao beside him couldn't take it anymore, and looked at He Jin suspiciously.

"Brother, five hundred versus three thousand, what are you afraid of! Promise him, let me slap him in the face hard!"

Seeing his younger brother He Miao's unusually fierce eyes, He Jin became hesitant again. His younger brother He Miao obviously has a certain military talent, otherwise he would not be able to lead the army to destroy the rebels.

"Brother!"

He Miao's repeated urging directly gave He Jin the courage to make a decision.

"Okay! I'll take it! Your Majesty, I will use 3,000 soldiers and horses to teach the general's 500 elite soldiers!"

Accepted, He Jin accepted the challenge, an extremely unfair battle!

Liu Hong was overjoyed at first, and then couldn't help but worry, after all, there was a six-fold gap in the number of people!

But it's too late to regret it, both parties have already agreed, and as the emperor himself, he definitely can't choose to back down.

Now knowing that all hopes are pinned on Liu Zhang, the only thing Liu Hong can do is two words, believe it!

"Okay, after that ten days, there will be a martial arts field in Mangshan. I will personally host this military exercise! When the time comes, let all the eight captains of Xiyuan go to watch the battle, and let them also see the demeanor of the elite soldiers!"

All the ministers bowed down together and bowed their hands one after another.

"Obey!"

Just when the officials thought that today's court meeting was over, Liu Hong spoke again.

"General, these days you put your heart and soul into preparing for the military exercise with the later general. All military affairs inside and outside Luoyang City should be handed over to Jian Shuo first, and everything will be discussed after the military exercise is over."

He Jin's eyes widened immediately after hearing this, and he looked at Liu Hong in disbelief.

"Your Majesty! This..."

"General, didn't you hear what I just said? We will talk about everything after the military exercise is over."

Finally, taking this opportunity, he seized the military affairs of Luoyang City from He Jin, saying that Liu Hong could no longer return it to He Jin!

Only then did He Jin realize why Liu Hong would rather let Liu Zhang enjoy unfair treatment than insist on letting himself fight. Some of them are all for the sake of losing Luoyang's military rights!

"May I ask Your Majesty, what about the winner after the military exercise?"

He Jin wasn't overly panicked, since Liu Hong had locked him in, he naturally couldn't let Liu Hong leave comfortably!

Three thousand against five hundred, He Jin is still confident, no matter how good you Liu Zhang is at fighting, you are still human!

Liu Hong didn't expect that He Jin would become more and more courageous, even daring to openly challenge himself! It's a pity that there was nothing wrong with He Jin's question, and I couldn't vent my anger on him.

"The winner will take over as Commander-in-Chief of Xiyuan!"

Sure enough, so!

He Jin felt a little joy in his heart, when Liu Hong said this sentence, He Jin understood.

Now Luoyang's Imperial Forest Army has 20,000 troops, completely under the control of his brothers, Liu Hong must be thinking of relying on Liu Zhang's 10,000 troops plus the 16,000 Xiyuan Army to fight against him!

It's really clever to be mistaken by cleverness! I want to see if the West Garden Army is back to me, what other tricks do you have!

He Jin was secretly happy in his heart, but Liu Hong was naturally not so happy, and regretted it instead.

Liu Hong really had no other choice, and was completely driven to a desperate situation. Although everything was planned, there were still some variables.

Five hundred versus three thousand, hey, it really depends on destiny!

He Jin was afraid that Liu Hong would repent, so he hurriedly surrendered.

"Your servant He Jin, obey the order!"

Liu Hong didn't have the heart to stay here any longer, and was about to get up and leave, when another person stood up.

This person is not important in itself, but his identity is a bit special, so Liu Hong could only sit down patiently.

"Liu Taichang, what's the matter with you?"

It was Liu Zhang's father who stood up, Liu Yan who was Taichang at the time. Taichang was transferred by Liu Yan a year ago, and Zong Zheng was promoted by Liu Yu, who was also a member of the Han clan.

Like Zongzheng, he is one of the nine ministers. Therefore, Liu Yan is not considered a promotion, but a flat transfer.
